Bacillus subtilis chassis characterisation

The characterisation of a chassis allows system and device designers to better understand how a chassis beahves and responds, making it possible to design systems that are better tailored to the host. All current characterisation is of the B. subtilis strain 168 but should be roughly similar to that of most B. subtilis laboratory strains.

As more labs and groups use B. subtilis the characterisation and understanding of different subspecies of B. subtilis will increase. As there is an increase in characterisation of different strains and in particular their differences, the best strain for a given task can be selected.
